Hi

Thanks for posting your query.

Back pain can occur in any lady who had c section for years together but it won't cause any curving of spine and any walking problem.

So there must be some other problem causing curving of your spine. It could be due to fracture ofspinal bones or weakness of spinal bones . Weakness of bones can occur due to calcium deficiency or vitamin deficiency.

I advise you get x ray lumbar spine serum calcium and serum vitamin D3 tests and revert back with reports.
If pain is excruciating get back physiotherapy weekly and take muscle relaxants after consulting your doctor.

Any clarification feel free to ask .
